Iconoclast Podcast is Here!
Rev. David Moses Perez launches his new podcast the Iconoclast Podcast (watch the trailer). It will feature conversations with thought-leaders, influencers, theologians, artists, and academics, who desire a higher and deeper exchange about iconoclastic ideas of life, meaning, faith, spirituality, and humanness. Even though the podcast hasn’t officially launched, you can still go to the YouTube channel and see some of the line-up. Be sure to subscribe too.
Iconoclast: A person who strongly opposes generally accepted beliefs and traditions.

Who is Spero Dei? (est. 2018)
Spero Dei is a more progressive Christian church. We are a collective of individuals on a journey, walking with each other without judgment and creating a safe place to ask questions without fear. Centered on the person of Christ, we trust more in our relationship with God than in a list of prescribed beliefs – meaning more acceptance and more flexibility than rigidity. We integrate body, mind, heart, and soul to build a holistic view of spirituality. We are a place where mystery, experience, and thinking enhance each other and deepen our understanding of God and world. We are committed to helping you become spiritually whole, not just biblically behaved. For us, this looks like self-awareness, love, growth, acceptance and connection – rooted in compassion and thriving in intimate community. We are a new kind of church where mystery meets thought, where faith means freedom to be yourself, and where your story finds a home.
